Bible Believers' Newsletter 936

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; it's great to have your company.

Our main article this week is "Nothing but the Blood of Jesus," who is the only haven of rest. Hasten hither if you are His elect where every member of Christ's end-time Bride has been recognized since the Laodicean and final Church Age ended in 1963 (Revelation 4:1). "Today if you will hear His voice harden not your hearts like Israel in the provocation" (Hebrews 3:15-19; Numbers 14:2, 11; John 6:49). Do not tarry; Gentile days are numbered, evinced by the apostate once Christian nations perpetrating unimaginable evils, primarily upon defenceless individuals and nations.

Churches have extinguished credibility by tolerating sin, promoting a social gospel, public welfare, and forsaking the strict line of God's unchanging Word. Pulpit delinquency has apostatised and communised congregants into modern Judas'. God will destroy those churches as He razed His temple and the worshippers (Revelation 2:21-23; 18:8-20; 19:20-21; 20:15). The pale horse is riding: today's news reports the end-time bloodshed of the Goyim by the Goyim for the Mammonites and their g_d Lucifer.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

War with China and Russia? Washington's Military Design in the Asia-Pacific

August 24, 2016 — It is important to focus on Southeast Asia and East Asia in a broader geopolitical context. China, North Korea as well as Russia are potential targets under Obama's "Pivot to Asia," involving the combined threat of missile deployments, naval power and pre-emptive nuclear war. We are not dealing with piecemeal military endeavours. The regional Asia-Pacific military agenda under the auspices of US Pacific Command (USPACOM) is part of a global process of US-NATO military planning.

US military actions are carefully coordinated. Major military and covert intelligence operations are being undertaken simultaneously in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, Central Asia and the Asia Pacific region. In turn, the planning of military operations is coordinated with non-conventional forms of warfare including regime change, financial warfare and economic sanctions.

The current situation is all the more critical inasmuch as a US-NATO war on Russia, China, North Korea and Iran is part of the US presidential election debate. War is presented as a political and military option to Western public opinion.

The US-NATO military agenda combines both major theater operations as well as covert actions geared towards destabilizing sovereign states. America's hegemonic project is to destabilize and destroy countries through acts of war, support of terrorist organizations, regime change and economic warfare.

While, a World War Three Scenario has been on the drawing board of the Pentagon for more than ten years, military action against Russia and China is now contemplated at an "operational level." US and NATO forces have been deployed in essentially three major regions of the World . . . "Offensive" military actions using nuclear warheads are now described as acts of "self-defence" . . . In the words of Hillary Clinton, the nuclear option is on the table. Pre-emptive nuclear war is part of her election campaign . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca

Brewing Collapse of the Western Monetary System? German Government warns of an Upcoming Catastrophe, tags Russia an 'Enemy Nation'

August 23, 2016 — Germany has just warned its citizens of an upcoming catastrophe and urged them to stockpile food, water and money for at least 10 days, to be autonomous and independent until the government has . . . the necessary public safety systems in place—in case of a 'catastrophe' . . . A war, an economic and or monetary collapse, or both? . . . the German Bundeswehr (army) has declared Russia as an enemy nation. This is akin to a declaration of war . . . head of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Russian State Duma, Alexei Puschkow, has posted the Twitter message: 'The decision of the German government declaring Russia to be an enemy shows Merkel's subservience to the Obama administration.'

. . . People who are afraid can be easily manipulated. While buying supermarkets' shelves empty, they will ask for more police and military protection. That's precisely what Washington and the EU wants—a militarization of Europe. Germany, being Obama's chief vassal, is the mouthpiece for the rest of Europe. At the same time, this scare tactic is an indirect warning of a threat of aggression from Russia . . . things do not look good for the US-NATO led West with its EU stooges . . . Erdogan . . . may be abandoning his alliance with Washington, Brussels—and NATO. Russia has asked Ankara to use its Incirlik airbase in the south, close to the Syrian border, currently mainly occupied by NATO, storing some 50 US nuclear warheads and uncountable US fighter jets and helicopters, plus housing at least 5,000 US-NATO troops . . . Turkey's Prime Minister . . . said . . . Russia could use the base, but denied that any such request has been made by Russia . . . "Pentagon has initiated the transfer of 20 B61-type aviation bombs with nuclear warheads from the Turkish Incirlik air base to the Deveselu base in Romania currently hosting the US missile shield . . ."

. . . Erdogan's new alliance with Russia, his recently re-established relation with his old friend Bashar al-Assad, Turkey's supposed closing of her borders to the Islamic State (IS-ISIS-Daesh) at the request of Russia, plus Iran putting her Hamadan base at Russia's disposal, making Russia, Iran, Syria, Hezbollah and (perhaps) Turkey the new axis of stability and maybe peace in the Middle East, is not boding well for the West . . . The area contains an enormous wealth of hydrocarbons and other natural resources—and the new axis threatens to block the Zionist expansion towards a Greater Israel . . . for achieving world hegemony . . .

It is hard to believe that Washington would risk a war with Russia, being well aware of Russia's superiority in the air, as well as on and under the sea with latest generation technology and nuclear warheads. But the exceptional nation on a declining course, knows no scruples pulling the entire humanity into her self-made abyss.

Another scenario of a world-shaking catastrophe may be financial. Lord Jacob Rothschild . . . refers to 'unintended' low interest rates with '30% of global government debt at negative yields' . . . almost unlimited 'Quantitative Easing' . . . the Rothschilds are shifting their money gradually away from the dollar into gold and other . . . currencies . . . Is it a hint that the gold standard . . . may return? . . . Russia's currency is covered twice with the value of gold. China's Yuan is also fully gold-backed . . . US too has been amassing gold . . . US money circles know that BREXIT may have inspired a mass movement . . . dissolving their pathetic EU-Euro tandem . . .

Returning to the gold standard—may involve a massive devaluation of the US dollar. It would bring down the economy of most countries dependent on the dollar and with large dollar reserves . . . in the United States it would mean debt would be eviscerated, while abroad assets held in US-dollar denominated securities would lose their value. This would apply to most developing countries still almost unconditionally tied to the dollar—especially Africa which holds . . . two thirds of the world's remaining natural resources. Guess, who may appropriate these resources as payment against fake and fabricated debt? . . .

. . . the value of gold . . . almost entirely in the hands of the BIS . . . itself controlled by the Rothschilds, Rockefellers . . .

Germany, the Obama vassal numero uno that calls out the warning to its people—and by extension to the rest of Europe . . . may have made a deal for a local or new currency to be launched . . . and hopes . . . it may be up to . . . putting the new system with electronic tellers and all on stream.

. . . some of the TBTF banks, in connivance with the FED, would call in their outstanding derivatives . . . 700 trillion dollars to more than a quadrillion. This . . . could break the necks of smaller banks . . . bring down the western world's financial system, all the while maintaining the dollar hegemony. All or most derivative denominations are in US dollars . . . In July 2016, on the occasion of the 95th Anniversary of China's Communist Party, President Xi Jinping declared "The New World Order is Finished." He also evoked the collapse of the US economy and the disintegration of the European Union. No western mainstream media covered the event.

What the West wants to ignore is that there is an alternative to the fraudulent western monetary system—a Russia-China based monetary scheme, totally delinked from the dollar-euro and the western privately owned FED-BIS-Wall Street manipulated system; a monetary structure built according to the value and strength of the member countries' economies. Instead of illegal sanctions, blackmail, threats and outright financial wars for those 'unwilling' to submit to Washington . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca

US invades Syria, and warns Russia

August 23, 2016 — The United States government—which demands the overthrow of the internationally-recognized-as-legal government of Syria—officially announced that America's military forces in Syria will continue to occupy Syrian land, no matter what the Syrian government says, and will shoot down any Syrian planes that fly over US forces there and that attack them . . .

This means that the US not only is at war against the legitimate government of Syria, but that the US government will also be at war against Russia if Russian forces (which the Syrian government did invite into Syria) defend Syrian forces from attacks in Syria by US forces—forces that are illegally there. These US forces number only 300, of whom 250 were sent to Syria on April 24 to serve as advisors to other illegal military forces in Syria.

The vast majority of the illegal military forces in Syria are jihadists who had been hired by the Saudi government and the Qatari government, and supplied with US weapons, to overthrow the Syrian government. Most of the other illegal forces in Syria are [MOSSAD-affiliated] Kurdish forces, supported by the US government to break Syria apart to create a separate Kurdish state in the majority-Kurdish far north-eastern tip of Syria . . . "the Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, then [in the summer of 2013] led by General Martin Dempsey, forecast that the fall of the Assad regime would lead to chaos and, potentially, to Syria's takeover by jihadi extremists, much as was then happening in Libya," and so Dempsey quit, and Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, director of the DIA between 2012 and 2014, was fired over the matter. "The DIA's reporting, he [Flynn] said, 'got enormous pushback' from the Obama administration. 'I felt that they did not want to hear the truth.'" Full story: russia-insider.com

Comment: The dirty war on Syria will be settled on the battlefield. International law is broken. Powerful nations continue to enjoy impunity for their crimes, and they have no reason to expect that they will be prosecuted. The credibly accused war criminals responsible for war crimes against countries that include Iraq, Libya, and now Syria, will not be prosecuted. International law is selective, and the powerful nations know this. They are repeat offenders and their impunity emboldens them (globalresearch.ca).

The US is AT WAR with Russia in service to Jewry and the Judaeo-Roman false church. Israel will be utterly defeated; the US will be DEFEATED, invaded and briefly occupied.

War-Waging in Jeopardy? Desperation of US Elite & return of Henry Kissinger

August 22 2016 — The Neocons' ferocious and deranged aggressive policy managed to nullify all three Kissingerian geostrategic achievements. In a sense, it has been a fortune for humanity, a proof of the diplomatic ability of Vladimir Putin and a clear indication of the rapacious stupidity of the Clinton/Bush establishment. For a profit, they did sell to Russia the rope to be used to hang them. But now the Anglo-American elite realizes that the group, the mafia, the establishment to whom they gave the car keys, have created a situation of existential danger for their domination. The real economy of the US has been thoroughly weakened by the escalating financial looting, to the point that also their war-waging ability has been jeopardized. And the Elite realizes that Russia and its allies are not going to surrender to the ferocious but hysterical and ineffective assault conceived by the moronic Neocon war criminals. This time will not be a fake coward war like the one against Iraq, or Libya. This time will be a real, nuclear, war. And the Anglo-American elite is ready to start any war against an enemy unable to defend itself, while they are scared to death of a real war in which they could LOOSE.

They realize also that, despite the military adventures and the present expenses allocated for the military, the US is being progressively isolated. They realize that, despite the investments in goebbelsian propaganda, NATO is not the magic bullet they dreamed of. While the real economy of the host country is being bled, The NATO structure is not able any more to fulfil its mission. Its mission being: "Keep the Russian out, the Americans in and the Europeans down".

The recent development in Turkey has shown, for the first time, that a NATO/US sponsored coup d'état did NOT succeed. Now, Turkey is entering a new political trajectory and a new geostrategic realm. Though it's difficult to foresee with perfect accuracy what is going to happen, it is clear that a process of progressive disintegration of the Anglo-American control and domination apparatus has started. It could progress very fast and very dramatically. The possibility of Turkey leaving NATO, de jure or simply de facto is being contemplated by many of the most competent observers. An informal military relation with Russia, China (and Iran!) is already a fact. The notorious US network of influence nominally run by Fetullah Gulen is being dismantled not only in Turkey, but in Azerbaijan and, it is expected to be weakened and neutralized in all the Turkic areas, i.e. the Southern Flank of the ex-Soviet Union. These areas were supposed to be the bastion of the "West" against Russia. They are rapidly becoming the opposite. Full story: globalresearch.ca

Comment: Have you read Daniel 2:40-45? It is taking place right now. Brother Branham said "KEEP YOUR EYES UPON RUSSIA. She'll all wind up in Communism . . . Remember, it'll all wind up in Catholicism in the end time . . . at the battle of Armageddon, right over in here when Christ comes Himself" (The Seventieth Week of Daniel, p. 120:219-220).

Is Putin a Zionist Puppet?

August 20, 2016 — There is no leader in the world who directly confronts or accuses Jews for the bad things they do. Appearing friendly toward Jews is the policy of virtually every world leader nowadays, certainly every European or western leader. And this is because Jews are without doubt the most powerful group in the world today. At the same time, many of our western leaders know what treacherous backstabbing liars the elite Jews can be. If the tables were ever turned and Jews lost their enormous power—and it appears that is starting to happen—you will hear quite a different tune. When calling someone "Hitler" is met with indifference and mockery, the Jews will have lost a lot of their power.

Most Jews, as we all know, have no time for Christianity and traditional moral values—another good reason for believing that those misguided non-Jews (goyim) who keep bashing Christianity are doing the Jews' dirty work for them. Without knowing or caring, these rebellious "Anti-Christs" (with their tiresome 'God is Dead' slogans à la Friedrich Nietzsche) are acting as agents for the Jews by advancing an essentially Jewish agenda: a Marxist, atheistical weltanshauung that inevitably ends in the impasse of nihilism and despair. They are acting as Useful Idiots for the Jews . . . Full story: darkmoon.me

Provoking Nuclear War by Media

August 23, 2016 — The International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague has quietly cleared the late Serbian president, Slobodan Milosevic, of war crimes committed during the 1992-95 Bosnian war, including the massacre at Srebrenica . . . truth further demolishes the propaganda that justified Nato's illegal onslaught on Serbia in 1999.

Milosevic died of a heart attack in 2006 . . . his condition worsened and was monitored and kept secret by US officials, as WikiLeaks has since revealed . . . the victim of war propaganda that today runs like a torrent across our screens and newspapers and beckons great danger for us all . . .

Comment: Pilger goes on to outline the litany of LIES, dastardly genocide of millions of innocent civilians and the ongoing destruction of civilizations around the globe. If you think this is bad, watch when church and state unite in the exceptional country when it kills all those do not submit to "the image of the beast" (Revelation 13:15-18).

Modern America: the Empire of Lies

August 20, 2016 — The notion that the United States is an empire of lies would be difficult to dispute by anyone who has followed the events of the last decade. It's a sad fact that today the absolute majority of Washington's policies along with the foundation of so-called "American democracy" are built upon blatant lies . . . But honestly, what does one expect from the likes of Hillary Clinton if even the Washington Post wouldn't hesitate to present a video filled with her lies and "shifting positions?"

'Great American Eclipse' One Year from Today

August 21, 2016 — On Monday, 2017 August 21, a total eclipse of the Sun will be visible from the contiguous United States for the first time since 1979. The track of the Moon's umbral shadow begins in the Pacific Ocean and crosses the USA from west to east through Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Inside the 70-mile-wide path of totality, the Moon will completely cover the Sun as the landscape is plunged into an eerie twilight, and the Sun's glorious corona is revealed for nearly 3 minutes. Outside the narrow shadow track, a partial eclipse will be visible from all of North America. Full story: usatoday.comgannett-cdn.com

We thought They were White

Like many African-Americans, I was brought up in a culture deeply infused with propaganda designed to lay the blame for all of the black race's ills on the white man. It was not until I began looking into the actual history of blacks, whites, and other races in America, that I came to realize that many if not most of the resentment that African-Americans harbor regarding our long history of abuse and exploitation has been intentionally misdirected by those who are most responsible for it, to shift the blame away from themselves as a people onto the white race who they regard as their enemies.

The reality is that the white race had little to do with the slave trade that took our ancestors away from Africa and sold them into bondage in the New World. That crime was committed not by White Europeans, but by Jews who were engaged in transatlantic commerce between the Old World and the Americas where they hoped to establish a New Jerusalem from which to rule the world by way of exploiting all races who were not members of their tribe of "chosen people." In their efforts to accomplish that goal, the white race has been hoodwinked and manipulated as unsuspecting pawns almost as much as the black race has been.

Blacks have been purposely misled by the Jewish people who, in previous centuries, built their fortunes in the transatlantic slave trade, and who continue to manipulate and exploit us even today. Because most black people make no distinction between Jews and whites, it is easy for the Jews to evade justice and escape the blame for the wrongs that they have inflicted on our people for centuries by convincing blacks that it was the white man who did it. In most cases the vast majority of the white race had nothing to do with slavery or other crimes that have been committed against our people. Whites were and continue to be exploited and manipulated by the Jews, the same as blacks, and their race is even more hated by the Jew, where blacks are simply disregarded by the Jews with indifference, as are other races. We are all simply pawns to the Jews who have no other use for us beyond being a source of profit to them and a weapon that can be used to help destroy whites, who they see as their sworn enemies, by encouraging us to breed with them until there are no longer any whites left . . .

Nothing but the Blood of Jesus

Leviticus 16 types the ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ and looks forward to the birth of the Israel nation in one day. It also looks back to the atonement that Day on Calvary when the Old Testament saints, Christ's end-time Bride and our 144,000 attendants were fully redeemed in Him. On the third day He cleansed the heavenly sanctuary of the accumulated sins of the Old Testament saints and resurrected them in glorified bodies; then on the fiftieth day Christ inaugurated His Church (Matthew 27:50-53; Acts 2:1-4). As Israel had been covered by the chemistry of the blood of a natural lamb, the Church Age saints were under the chemistry of Christ's Blood on the Mercy Seat throughout two thousand years while the Book of Life was sealed and as Son of God He interceded for their ignorance of the fulness of the Word. Now since the revelation of the Seven Seals brought Christ back to earth in W_O_R_D form in the prophetic office Son of Man He is King of Kings and Judge (John 5:27).

When the last saint predestinated to the Laodicean Church Age was born-again in 1963 there was no more Blood on the Mercy Seat which was now a Judgment Seat; all seven Church Ages were fulfilled along with Christ's Mediation for PART-Word. Redemption was over; Revelation 4, 5, and 10:1-6 were fulfilled on about March 8, 1963 when Christ claimed the Book, opened the Seven Seals and revealed them through His prophet William Branham between March 17 and 24. And today we do have, by God's help, the perfect interpretation of the Word with Divine vindication. "Then that which is in part is done away with . . . When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child; but when I become a man, I put away childish things" (I Corinthians 13:10-11; COD, p. 1005:57).

Leviticus 16:1, "Now the Lord spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, [Nadab and Abihu], when they had offered incense with strange fire before the Lord which He commanded them not, and fire went out from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord" (Leviticus 6:13; 10:1-3; I Thessalonians 5:17; Hebrews 13:15).

Here the Hebrew word for "strange" is 'zuwr,' the same word used to describe the accursed Serpent's seed people of Cain's race. Brother Branham likened their presumption to approaching the Presence of the Lord with denominational PART-Word which brings death to the minister and the hearer since "that which is perfect has come"—Christ the fullness of the Word (Revelation Chapter Four, Part III, p. 684:223). The occasion was the eighth day of the consecration of Aaron and his eldest sons to the priesthood, and the joy of the people was rapidly destroyed by anxiety and fear.

Brother Branham said this was not the fire taken from the ever-burning brazen altar of continual sacrificial worship God had lit (The Seven Church Ages, p. 24:186). The heavenly Fire in Leviticus 9:24 consumed the victim, testifying God's acceptance of the vicarious sacrifice (Genesis 4:4; Judges 6:21; 13:19-20; I Kings 18:38), and turning sin to ashes with it (Isaiah 4:4; Matthew 3:11). Fire, by its pure, penetrating agency, symbolizes the holiness of God which consumes sin as a thing He cannot abide in His Presence, for it is cherem and must be destroyed for His glory (II Thessalonians 1:8; Hebrews 10:27; 12:29; Revelation 20:14-15). So the Supernatural Fire (Exodus 19:18) of the holy God which had sanctified Aaron's service consumed his eldest sons.

It was this perpetual fire on the altar of sacrifice that lit the menorah or seven golden lamp-stands on the southern side of the Holy Place. The priests continually replenished the reservoir with olive oil and the light from one lamp lit the second lamp and the second lamp lit the third lamp, and so-on showing it was the same Holy Spirit that illuminated the saints in all seven Church Ages.

The very Gospel that saves the humble is death to the presumptuous (II Corinthians 2:16; Colossians 2:29). So before partaking the Lord's Supper we each examine our own self and tarry one for another to ensure each is at one with the Word and Spirit for our day and with one another as members of one Body. Paul explains in I Corinthians 11:23-34, it is death not to take it, and death to take it unworthily.

Leviticus 16:2, "And the Lord said to Moses, Tell your brother Aaron that he shall not enter at any time within the veil into Holy of Holies before the Mercy Seat which is on the Ark; lest he die: for _I_ will appear [or manifest My Presence] in the Shekinah over the Mercy Seat".

This Tabernacle is where_I_dwell among the children of Israel in the Shekinah over the Mercy Seat between the cherubim. Man must not presume to enter My Presence at will, only those who are invited may enter. In John 15:16 Jesus said, "You have not chosen Me, but_I_have chosen you, and ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatever you shall ask of the Father in My Name, He may give it you." And in Matthew 7:8 he promised, "Everyone that asks receives; and he who seeks finds; and to him that knocks it shall be opened".

Seven days before the Day of Atonement the high priest took his abode in the Temple where he sanctified, studied and rehearsed the ceremonial routine of his annual ritual with his substitute.

Leviticus 16:3-4, "Aaron shall enter the Holy of Holies with a young bull for a sin offering and a ram for a burnt offering. He shall put on the holy linen tunic, and the linen undergarments next to his body, he shall be girt with the linen girdle, and attired with the linen turban (these are holy garments) therefore he shall bathe his body in water, and put them on".

In his daily walk Aaron and succeeding high priests wore the dress of an ordinary Israelite. Brother Branham said, Jesus "dressed just like other men . . . if He was here in a body of flesh tonight, He'd wear a suit of clothes like we have. And His picture there shows He didn't have long hair, not by no means; He had short hair. But today we shore it on up closer".

But when the high priest officiated in the Temple he wore the garments of glory of the bridal chamber and beauty made from gold, blue, purple and scarlet adorned with an ephod and breastplate, and the hem of his garment was adorned with alternate golden bells and pomegranates, which chimed, "Holy, holy, holy" as he walked before the Lord (Exodus 28). He was a type of our glorified heavenly Bridegroom, Jesus Christ. On the Day of Atonement he put off his garments of beauty and glory and put on pure white linen garments of a suppliant as Jesus Christ our High Priest laid aside the glory of His Person and took the humble form of a servant, for God is no respecter of persons (Acts 10:34; Philippians 2:7). As he entered the Holy of Holies four times on the Day of Atonement so he had to wash his body five times and change his clothes four times.

Leviticus 16:5-7, "And he shall take from the congregation of the children of Israel two he goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering. And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house. And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the Lord at the door of the Tabernacle of the congregation".

The sin offering for ignorance of the high priest was a covering or atonement for himself and lest his sin should by association contract guilt on the people, making them liable of the penalty (Leviticus 4:1-7).

Leviticus 16:8-10, "And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the Lord, and the other lot for the scapegoat. And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the Lord's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into a land not inhabited".

Notice, the two goats, altogether alike in appearance, size and value, and if possible, purchased at the same time, formed two parts of one sin offering. Both represented Jesus Christ. Standing in the northern side of the court between the porch and the altar of sacrifice stood an urn in which were two lots identical in shape, size, and material; the one bearing the inscription "for the Lord," the other "for the scape goat." These two goats had been placed with their backs to the people and their faces towards the sanctuary. The high-priest now faced the people, shook the urn, thrust in both hands and drew the two lots, laying one on the head of each goat. The high-priest tied a tongue-shaped piece of scarlet cloth to the horn of the scape goat and another round the throat of the goat for Jehovah, which was to be slain. The goat that was to be sent forth was now turned round towards the people, and stood facing them, waiting, as it were, till their sins should be laid on him, and he would carry them forth into "a land not inhabited".

Leviticus 16:11: In the presence of the children of Israel after he had taken his bullock, he would put his hand on the head of the bullock and make this confession, "I Jehovah I have committed iniquity. I have transgressed. I have sinned. I and my house. Oh then Jehovah I entreat Thee. Cover over. That is atone for. Let there be atonement for the iniquities the transgressions and the sins which I have committed. Transgressed and sinned before Thee. I and my house even as it was written in the Law of Moses Thy servant for on that day will He cover over for you to make you clean from all your transgressions before Jehovah ye shall be cleansed." Then he shall kill the bullock of the sin offering for himself and those of the priesthood.

Leviticus 16:12-13: "And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar of incense before the Lord, and two handfuls of finely ground sweet incense, and bring it within the veil. And he shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of the incense may cover the Mercy Seat that is on the Ark of the testimony [or stone tablets of the Law within the Ark], lest he die." And every eye was strained towards the sanctuary as, slowly bearing the censer and the incense, the figure of the white-robed high-priest was seen to disappear within the Holy Place. After that nothing further could be seen of his movements.

Leviticus 16:17, "There shall be no man in the Tabernacle (Gk. naos) of the congregation when he goes in to make an atonement in the Holy of Holies, until he comes out, having made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel" (Hebrews 9:7). Jesus was alone in Gethsemane, and alone at the Cross. In Isaiah 63:3 He declares, "I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in My anger, and trample them in My fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon My garments, and I will stain all My raiment."

The curtain of the Most Holy Place was folded back, and the high-priest stood alone and separated from all of the people in the awful gloom of the Holy of Holies, lit only by the red glow of the coals in the priest's censer. In the first Temple the ark had stood here and the visible Presence or likeness of the glory of the Lord appeared as the cloud of the Shekinah, above the Mercy Seal and between the cherubim; and the high-priest placed the censer between the staves of the Ark. But in the Temple of Herod there was neither Shekinah nor Ark, for the Holy of Holies was empty and the high-priest rested his censer on a large rock, called the 'foundation-stone.' He now most carefully emptied the incense into his hand, and threw it on the coals of the censer, as far from himself as possible and waited till the smoke had filled the Most Holy Place. Then, retreating backwards, he prayed outside the veil as follows: "May it please Thee, O Lord our God, and the God of our fathers, that neither this day nor during this year any captivity come upon us. Yet, if captivity befalls us this day or this year, let it be to a place where the Law is cultivated. May it please Thee, O Lord our God, and the God of our fathers, that want come not upon us, either this day or this year. But if want visit us this day or this year, let it be due to the liberality of our charitable deeds. May it please Thee, O Lord our God, and the God of our fathers, that this year may be a year of cheapness, of fulness, of intercourse and trade; a year with abundance of rain, of sunshine, and of dew; one in which Thy people Israel shall not require assistance one from another. And listen not to the prayers of those who are about to set out on a journey. [Who might pray against the fall of rain as the autumn rains, on which the fruitfulness of the land depended, were due at the end of Tishri]. And as to Thy people Israel, may no enemy exalt himself against them. May it please Thee, O Lord our God, and the God of our fathers, that the houses of the men of Saron [(Acts 9:35) a broad rich tract of land which lies between the mountains of the central part of the holy land and the Mediterranean, which, on account of its situation, that valley was threatened either by sudden floods or by dangerous landslips] may not become their graves." The high-priest was not to prolong this prayer, lest his protracted absence might fill the people with fears for his safety.

Leviticus 16:14: While the incense was offering in the Most Holy Place the people withdrew from proximity to it, and worshipped in silence. At last the people saw the high-priest emerging from the sanctuary, and they knew that the service had been accepted. Rapidly he took the blood of the bullock from the attendant who had kept it stirring. Once more he entered into the Most Holy Place, and sprinkled with his finger once upwards, towards where the mercy-seat had been, and seven times downwards, counting as he did so: 'Once' (upwards), 'once and once' (downwards), 'once and twice' and so on to 'once and seven times,' always repeating the word 'once,' which referred to the upwards sprinkling, so as to prevent any mistake. Coming out from the Most Holy Place, the high-priest now deposited the bowl with the blood before the veil.

Leviticus 16:15-20: Then he killed the goat set apart for Jehovah, and, entering the Most Holy Place a third time, sprinkled as before, once upwards and seven times downwards, and again deposited the bowl with the blood of the goat on a second golden stand before the veil. Taking up the bowl with the bullock's blood, he next sprinkled once upwards and seven times downwards towards the veil, outside the Most Holy Place, and then did the same with the blood of the goat. In the antitype these seven stripes of blood signified the Blood of Christ covering the saints of the seven Church Ages of PART-Word with Christ's Mediation while the Book was sealed. Finally, pouring the blood of the bullock into the bowl which contained that of the goat, and again the mixture of the two into that which had held the blood of the bullock, so as thoroughly to commingle the two, he sprinkled each of the horns of the altar of incense, and then, making a clear place on the altar, seven times the top of the altar of incense. Thus he had sprinkled forty-three times with the expiatory blood, taking care that his own dress should never be spotted with the sin-laden blood. What was left of the blood the high-priest poured out on the west side of the base of the altar of burnt-offering.

By these expiatory sprinklings the high-priest had cleansed the sanctuary in all its parts from the spiritual defilement of the priesthood and the worshippers. The Most Holy Place, the veil, the Holy Place, the altar of incense, and the altar of burnt-offering were now clean, so far as the priesthood and as the people were concerned; and in their relationship to the sanctuary both priests and worshippers were atoned for. So far as the Law could give it, there was now again free access for all; the continuance of typical sacrificial communion with God was once more restored and secured. Had it not been for these services, it would have become impossible for priests and people to offer sacrifices, and so obtain the forgiveness of sins or have fellowship with God. But the consciences were not yet free from a sense of personal guilt and sin. That remained to be done through the "scape goat." All this seems clearly implied in the distinctions made in Leviticus 16:33: "He shall make atonement for the holy sanctuary, and make atonement for the tabernacle of the congregation, and for the altar, and he shall make atonement for the priests and for all the people of the congregation".

Leviticus 16:21-22 Having come out again there remained the live goat and he would go over to the live goat and then he would put both hands over the head of the goat and the high priest would then confess in this way. He would shout out to all Israel gathered around the tabernacle or the temple could hear, "Ah, Jehovah they committed iniquity. They have transgressed. They have sinned. Thy people the house of Israel. Oh then Jehovah cover over. I entreat Thee upon their iniquities, their transgressions, and their sins, which they have wickedly committed, transgressed and sinned before Thee. Thy people the house of Israel. As it is written in the Law of Moses, Thy servant, saying: "For on that day shall it be covered over (atoned) for you to make you clean from all your sins before Jehovah you shall be cleansed." And while the prostrate multitude worshipped at the Name of Jehovah, the high-priest turned his face towards them as he uttered the last words, "Ye shall be cleansed!" as if to declare to them the absolution and remission of their sins.

Then the priests led the sin-burdened goat out through "Solomon's Porch" where unbelieving Jews would seek to stone Jesus for blasphemy (John 10:22-42), the deceitful Sapphira would fall down dead, and the apostles would perform many signs and wonders (Acts 5:1-16). Thence they led the goat over an arched bridge to the Mount of Olives, where a man took him in charge for half a sabbath day's journey to nine such fellows in succession. At last they reached the edge of the wilderness. Here the man tore off half the "scarlet tongue," and stuck it on a projecting cliff; then, leading the animal backwards, he pushed it over the projecting ledge of rock. The man, now defiled by contact with the sin-bearer, retraced his steps to the last of the ten stations, where he spent the rest of the day and the night. But the arrival of the goat in the wilderness was immediately telegraphed, by the waving of flags, from station to station, till, a few minutes after its occurrence, it was known in the Temple, and whispered from ear to ear, that "the goat had borne upon him all their iniquities into a land not inhabited".

The blood of the bull and the "goat for Jehovah" had "made an end of reconciling the Holy Place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar" (Leviticus 16:20). But it could do no more, for it "could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience" (Hebrews 9:9). The symbolical representation of this perfecting was by the live goat, which, laden with the confessed sins of the people, carried them away into the wilderness" to "a land not inhabited." This demonstrates that although confessed guilt was removed from the people to the head of the goat, as the symbolical substitute, yet as the goat was not killed, only sent far away to "a land not inhabited"; under the Old Covenant, sin was not remitted, only put away from the people and stored in the heavenly temple until Christ took upon Himself the burden of transgression, cleansed the sanctuary of the accumulated sins of the Old Testament saints, and remitted the mistakes of the New Testament saints, placing them upon Satan.

Thus viewed, not only the text of Leviticus 16 but also the language of Hebrews 9 and 10 which chiefly refer to the Day of Atonement, becomes plain. The "blood," both of the bullock and of the goat which the high-priest carried "once a year" within "the sacred veil," was "offered for himself (and the priesthood) and for the errors (or ignorance) of the people." In the language of Leviticus 16:20, it reconciled "the Holy Place, and the Tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar"; as already explained, it rendered the continuance of sacrificial worship possible on the part of priests and people. But this live scape-goat "let go" in the wilderness, over which the high-priest had confessed, and on which he had laid "all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins," showed the inherent "weakness and unprofitableness of the commandment. For the Law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did" (Hebrews 7:18-19).

In the Covenant mercy of God guilt and sin were both atoned or "covered up" and removed from the people, but they were not really taken away and destroyed till Christ came; they were only taken into a land not inhabited, till He should blot it out by His own blood. The provision made in the Old Testament was only preparatory and temporary, until the "time of reformation" (Hebrews 9:10) and true forgiveness, remission of sins and with it the spirit of adoption that frees us from the yoke of carnal ordinances, could only be finally obtained after the death and resurrection of "the Lamb of God which takes away the sin of the world" (John 1:29). "The blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purifies your conscience from dead works to serve the living God" (Hebrews 9:14; 10:2, 22; Romans 8:1-3). Thus the Old Testament saints "received not the promise: God having provided some better things for us, that they without us should not be made perfect" (Hebrews 11:39-40).

Jesus had to pay the (Heb.) Mohar to purchase us as His Wife, and be "raised for our justification" before He could redeem the Old Testament saints. "For the Law having a shadow of the good things to come . . . could never . . . make the comers thereunto perfect"; nor was it possible "that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins" (Hebrews 10:1-4). The live goat "let go" every year was a remover of sins which were never really removed in the sense of being blotted out—only deposited, as it were, and reserved till He came "whom God put forth to take the punishment for our sins, using His Blood and our faith as a reconciling sacrifice to show God's righteousness, because in His divine forbearance He had forgiven the former sins" (Romans 3:25-26). Yet the price had to be paid "Life for life" by our kinsman Redeemer. "Therefore He is the mediator of a New Covenant, so those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred which redeems them from the transgressions under the first Covenant" (Hebrews 9:15).

While the scape-goat was being led into the wilderness, the high-priest proceeded to cut up the bullock and the goat with whose blood he had previously "made atonement," put the "inwards" in a vessel which he committed to an attendant, and sent the carcasses to be burnt "outside the city," in the place where the Temple ashes were usually deposited. Then, according to tradition, the high-priest, still wearing the linen garments, went into the "Court of the Women," and read the passages of Scripture bearing on the Day of Atonement, Leviticus 16; 23:27-32, also repeating by heart Numbers 29:7-11. A series of prayers accompanied this reading of the Scriptures.

These prayers ended, the high-priest washed his hands and feet, put off his "linen" and put on his "golden vestments," and once more washed hands and feet before proceeding to the next ministry. He now appeared again before the people as the Lord's anointed in the golden garments of the Bride-chamber. Before he offered the festive burnt-offerings of the day, he sacrificed "a kid of the goats for a sin-offering" (Numbers 29:16), probably with special reference to these festive services, which, like everything else, required atoning blood for their acceptance. The flesh of this sin-offering was eaten at night by the priests within the sanctuary. Next, he sacrificed the burnt-offerings for the people and one ram for himself (Leviticus 16:3); finally he burned the "inwards" of the expiatory offerings, whose blood had formerly been sprinkled in the Most Holy Place. This, properly speaking, finished the services of the day. But the high-priest had yet to offer the ordinary evening sacrifice, after which he washed his hands and his feet, once more put off his "golden" and put on his "linen garments," and again washed his hands and feet before entering the Most Holy Place a fourth time on that day to fetch the censer and incense-dish which he had left there. On his return he washed once more hands and feet, put off his linen garments, which were never to be used again, put on his golden vestments, washed hands and feet, burnt the evening incense on the golden altar, lit the lamps on the lamp stand for the night, washed his hands and feet, put on his ordinary layman's dress, and was escorted by the people in procession to his own house in Jerusalem. The evening closed with a feast.

Hebrews 9:22-26, "And almost all things [under the old dispensation] are by the Law purged with blood; and apart from shedding of blood is no remission [or settlement of the debt of sin which requires life for Life" (Matthew 6:12; 18:27, 32)].

Hence the pouring out of the blood on the altar is the main part of the sacrifice. As the sovereign author and proprietor of nature, God reserved the blood to Himself and allowed men to use it only in the way of sacrifices. Leviticus 17:11, "For the [mortal] life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that makes an atonement for the soul." As at the first Passover the chemistry of the blood is the token or evidence of the life of an innocent victim surrendered in place of a guilty penetent. And the blood could not be poured out without first slaying the victim, thus Jesus said, "This cup [of red wine made by holy hands or feet] signifies the New Testament [ratified] in My Blood, which is poured out for you" (Luke 22:20).

Christ was the Lamb of God who purged the sin of the world with His own Blood; it was neither Israelite nor Gentile blood, but the created Blood of God spoken by the Angel Gabriel and received in faith by Mary (Acts 20:28; Revelation 1:5; 5:9). God paid the price of our redemption, but God is a Spirit and in that form He could not die or bleed, neither could He be a near KINSMAN to redeem Adam and his fallen race. But through the virgin birth "God manifest in flesh [dissociated with lust, original sin and Cain's accursed race], was justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world and received up into glory" (I Timothy 3:16).

From Matthew 1:18, 20 and 23 we know that the father of Jesus is the Holy Spirit. Until He formed the first Adam He was not a Father, and He was not a Son until the virgin Mary gave birth to baby Jesus. Jesus was "the fullness of the Godhead with us bodily" (Colossians 2:9) not a fraction of "God who is not a man, that He should lie; neither human that He should change His mind" (Numbers 23:19; Malachi 3:6), and He is not two spirits and one Man. "God is One Spirit: and all who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth" which is the clear understanding of faith (John 4:24). Jesus Christ is the One Person of God manifest in virgin-born flesh to die and shed His Blood for the redemption of the first Adam and his race. As the Holy Spirit fathered both the first and the last Adam, Jesus Messiah is the KINSMAN Redeemer for every Adamite who becomes a written epistle of His Word for his day.

God's Word comes only to a prophet as II Peter 1:20-21 instructs. Neither Adam, Moses, Jesus, Paul or any vindicated prophet of the Old or New Testament ever taught that God is a trinity. Trinitarianism was introduced into Christendom when pagan emperor Constantine and non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews organized the Judaeo-Roman Universal church at the First Nicaea Council in AD325 (Revelation 2; every encyclopaedia). Every religion including Judaism which is Pharisaism and the antithesis of Yahwism (Matthew 15:9) and Islam which is an offshoot of the Judaeo-Roman Universal church, worships a trinity. The purpose of Vatican II was to unite all false religions for one world government as Jewish author Uri Dowbenko wrote, "I think that from the very start John Paul II for whatever reasons has sought after one thing and one thing only. The formation of what now appears to be in his mind, a universal assemblage of Catholics at the core; grouped with them Protestant denominations, sects and churches; grouped around them believing Jews, believing Muslims, believing Hindus, believing Buddhists. That would be a universal religious assembly that could have a powerful dynamic kick in civilization and in solving the problems of men and women today. That is the only thing you can really say this man has sought heart and soul and body with all his travelling . . ." (Uri Dowbenko, Bushwhacked: Inside Stories of True Conspiracy, ISBN 0971004218, p. 213).

This is precisely what Jesus foretold in Revelation 13 stating emphatically trinitarianism is the umbilical cord to Rome, the mark of the Roman beast that will be forced worldwide by the United States' "image unto the beast" when the apostate (once) Protestant churches unite with the state as Emperor Constantine's Rome united with the nascent false church at the First Nicaean Council.

Christ's Bride, the Church, is formed from the Holy Spirit released when the second Adam was put to sleep on Calvary, as Eve was formed from a rib the first Adam was put to sleep. The Church Age saints claimed Christ's Mediation and His Blood on the Mercy Seat as their Token. The denominationals don't understand that since He opened the Seven Seals there has been no Blood: the Mercy Seat is now a Judgment Seat and Jesus Christ is Judge. Our Token is the Life of Christ on display in us by our revelation of the fullness of the Word (Matthew 20:28; Acts 4:13; II Corinthians 3:3). As Israel clung to its substitute bulls and goats, the world church system clings to its substitute trinitarian creeds, baptism in three Titles and Judaeo-Roman traditions—ignorance for which Christ is no longer a mediator (II Peter 1:12; I John 1:7). Hereby they "crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put Him to an open shame" (Hebrews 6:6).

Isaiah 66:1, "Heaven is My throne and earth is My footstool [or Judgment Seat]." But as II Thessalonians 2:6-7 explains, the presence of Christ's end-time Bride restrains God's wrath by transforming earth from His Judgment Seat to a Mercy Seat because the life is in the blood so we are the Blood of Christ by the baptism with the Holy Ghost and His Life is living in us (Deuteronomy 12:23; I Corinthians 6:17; Galatians 3:26-29). When Christ takes us Home the Holy Spirit will leave the earth and Satan will be cast down.

In the prophetic symbolical description of Ezekiel's Temple (Ezekiel 40-46) all mention of the Day of Atonement is omitted; for Christ has come "a high-priest of good things to come . . . and . . . by His own Blood He entered in once into the Holy Place . . . to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself" (Hebrews 9:11-12, 26). Ezekiel is laying the symbolical ground plan from which Israel will "reinstruct another temple" (The Seventieth Week of Daniel, p. 103:141) which I understand will be the birth of the nation in one day (The Sixfold Purpose of Gabriel's Visit to Daniel, p. 62:117-142). The Millennium Temple will be the regenerated Israel nation purchased with the Blood of Jesus Messiah that Day on Calvary. nl936.htm

Bible Believers' Newsletter 935

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are pleased you could join us in fellowship around God's unchanging Word.

Please welcome contributing author Jonathan Gray (www.beforeus.com) whose article, "Invisible, but the Camera saw It" reveals an unexpected clue whereby we know that Moses wrote the Pentateuch, perhaps on clay tablets or velum. It was not committed to memory and transmitted orally. This discovery exposes the rabbinical lie that the Talmud, which they call the "oral torah," was transmitted by God to Moses and orally transmitted from high priest to high priest, and from rabbi to rabbi until it was finally codified in the sixth century whereupon the Masorettes began the counterfeit Masoretic text of the Old Testament, afterward destroying all other Hebrew texts. If there ever was an "oral" Torah delivered by God to Moses, it was certainly not the Talmud which is the antithesis of the Pentateuch begun during the Captivity and based upon the ancient Babylonian codes.

Please read the full story is our current news and take note of the last item on currency collapse.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

August 15, 2016 — The G20 Hangzhou Summit is at the cross-roads of world history . . . China's task is daunting, but throughout the last and present century, China has shown almost superhuman ability to overcome enormous and virtually insurmountable obstacles, as a result of powerful strategic thinking, great determination, and formidable intelligence. China's success in restructuring its own economy and society, and ascending to global pre-eminence, is a basis for hope that their win-win approach to the new global economic architecture will prevail and gain acceptance by all participants in the G20 Summit . . .

Among the challenges faced by China, as a nation is the resurgence of a cold-war mentality in sectors of some of the countries participating in the G20 Summit . . . provocative military investments by economies which prioritize profit maximization to the exclusion of all other considerations could precipitate another arms race, and ultimately Armageddon, for it is not possible to ignore the fact that war is one of the most profitable 'ïndustries' of all for the miniscule group of arms merchants . . .

August 16, 2016 — We know that each illegal war of conquest is prefaced by a Public Relations campaign that demonizes the target country's leader and its government as it lies about on-the-ground realities. Muammar Gaddafi, for example, was presented to Western media consumers as a lunatic and despot. The Western narratives, however, were contradicted by the fact that he earned broad-based support from Libyans, all of whom enjoyed public services such as free healthcare and schooling, and a high standard of living.

The same demonization campaign is being waged against the hugely popular Dr. Bashar al-Assad, the democratically–elected President of Syria. Terrorist–embedded propagandists teach us that he is an evil dictator, who kills his own people, and that "he must go"; however, credible evidence inverts this logic. Henry Lowendorf, a member of the Executive Board of the US Peace Council's Peace and Fact-Finding Delegation to Syria—recently returned from Syria—reports, that, "What we saw (in Syria) goes against everything we read in the United States."

He repudiates the Western media's demonization campaign against the government of President Assad and the Syrian Arab Army in these words:

"When you go to Syria, which I did last month, the popularity of the government and the Syrian Arab Army is rampant. It's not out of some dream fantasy. It comes obviously from the government and the army being the only thing between living a secular life on the one hand and the hatred and violence of ISIS and the various other terrorist groups underwritten by the terrorist Saudis and US and their allies on the other. The refugees who don't leave Syria do not flee to the terrorist side; they flee to the government side, in huge numbers. So would all of us in similar circumstances. Syrians don't want their country turned into Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Sudan, Somalia or any of the other countries the US has liberated".

The reality is an inversion of the propaganda lies fed to Western audiences. In fact, President Assad must stay, for the sake of civilization, and for the sake of destroying Western-backed terrorism. Each time Empire succeeds in destroying another country, the problem of terrorism worsens—as might be expected. The destruction of Libya, for example, set the stage for the attempted destruction of Syria . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca

Comment: In "The Tax-Exempt Foundations," William McIlhany, interviewed Norman Dodd, Director of Research for Congressman Carroll Reece, chairman of a Senate Select Committee investigation into subversive activities of the tax-exempt foundations. Dodd repeated what his investigator Kathryn Casey had found in the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace (sic) organization's minutes compiled several years before the start of World War I:

[In the minutes] the trustees raised a question. And they discussed the question and the question was specific, "Is there any means known to man more effective than war, assuming you wish to alter the life of an entire people?" And they discussed this and at the end of a year they came to the conclusion that there was no more effective means to that end known to man. So, then they raised question number two, and the question was, "How do we involve the United States in a war?"

And then they raised the question: "How do we control the diplomatic machinery of the United States?" And the answer came out, "We" must control the State Department. Through an agency set up by the Carnegie Endowment every high appointment in the State Department was cleared. Finally, we were in a war. These trustees in a meeting about 1917 had the brashness to congratulate themselves on the wisdom of their original decision because already the impact of war had indicated it would alter life and can alter life in this country. This was the date of our entry in the war; we were involved. They even had the brashness to word and to dispatch a telegram to Mr. Wilson, cautioning him to see that the war did not end too quickly."

Today, former Secretary of State Killery Clinton is running for POTUS. I [Hillary Clinton] am delighted to be here in these new [CFR] headquarters. I have been often to, I guess, the mother ship in New York City, but it's good to have an outpost of the Council right here down the street from the State Department. We get a lot of advice from the Council, so this will mean I won't have as far to go to be told what we should be doing and how we should think about the future.

Trump's Aggressive Foreign Policy

August 16, 2016 — His August 15 foreign policy address in Youngstown, OH showed he'll govern as an establishment leader if elected in November—continuing dirty geopolitical business as usual vital to end once and for all. He'll wage endless wars to "defeat radical Islamic terrorism," he said—without explaining its US creation and support at least since the 1980s in Afghanistan against Soviet Russia.

Bin Laden was a Pakistani intelligence-recruited CIA asset. Obama didn't kill him. He died of natural causes in December 2001, widely reported at the time. Earlier mujahedeen fighters are today's Taliban, Al Qaeda, Nusra Front, ISIS, Boko Haram and similar groups—created, supported and used by America as imperial foot soldiers to do its killing and dying where they're deployed with the aim of replacing sovereign independent governments with US puppet regimes.

America isn't at war with "radical Islamic terrorism." It actively supports it as an instrument of US imperial foreign policy. Obama and Hillary didn't create today's deplorable geopolitical landscape. They exacerbated decades earlier policy—begun under Jimmy Carter, continued under Reagan, Bill Clinton, Bush II to today, certain to go on seamlessly under duopoly governance no matter who succeeds Obama. Today's gravest issue is systemic—neocon infested Washington bent on world dominance, doing whatever it takes to accomplish its objective, color revolutions and wars its strategies of choice.

Will Trump as president change things? No. Will he differ from another Clinton co-presidency? Only by being less likely to start WW III if he follows through on wanting better relations with Russia. If he continues waging imperial wars on the phony pretext of combating terrorism, US/Moscow geopolitical policies will be intractably at odds.

"ISIS . . . operat(es) in 18 countries with aspiring branches in 6 or more for a total of 24, and many believe it is even more than that," said Trump.

Fact: ISIS operates where US policymakers deploy their fighters, under commanders chosen by CIA and Pentagon officials—recruited, armed, funded and directed by America, NATO, Israel and other regional rogue states.

Fact: The way to defeat ISIS and other radical Islamic groups is stop supporting them. They can't exist without foreign backing.

He claims wars on Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya were mistakes he opposed after supporting them earlier. He called failure to seize Iraq's oil fields poor judgment. "In the old days when we won a war, to the victor got the spoils," he blustered.

He failed to explain all wars violate core international, constitutional and US statute laws without Security Council authorization. US presidents and Congress have no right to wage them without it—especially against nations posing no threat to America or any other countries.

All ongoing US direct and proxy wars are illegal acts of aggression. Trump promised to continue them—justified by pledging to combat radical Islamic terrorism America supports. US war on humanity will continue no matter who succeeds Obama. Prospects for world peace and stability are nonexistent—a deplorable situation threatening everyone. Full story: globalresearch.ca

Comment: "Liberalism produced Constitutional States, which took the place of what was the only safeguard of the Goyim, namely, Despotism; [no, hereditary monarchies born and groomed to rule well], and a constitution, as you well know, is nothing else but a school of discords, misunderstandings, quarrels, disagreements, fruitless party agitations, party whims—in a word, a school of everything that serves to destroy the personality of State activity. The tribune of the "talkeries" has, no less effectively than the press, condemned the rulers to inactivity and impotence, and thereby rendered them useless and superfluous, for which reason indeed they have been in many countries deposed. The era of republics become possible of realization; and then it was that we replaced the ruler by a caricature of a government—by a president, taken from the mob, from the midst of our puppet creatures, or slaves. This was the foundation of the mine which we have laid under the GOY people, I should rather say, under the Goy peoples" (Protocol 10:10).

Council on Foreign Relations, its NWO One World Government Agenda

August 15, 2016 — New World Order propaganda rules and shapes the world. And there's no more powerful propagator of propaganda that rules and shapes US global hegemony, world events and major geopolitical developments than the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) . . . Since 1940 every Secretary of State but one has been on the CFR and/or Trilateral Commission, and a majority of Secretaries of Treasury have also worked for the shadow government. Multiple CIA directors have been in the CFR. For eight decades nearly every key National Security and Foreign Policy Advisor are/were members. And of course a significant number of US presidents and VP's have been CFR members. The fact is the Council on Foreign Relations has been controlling US foreign policy for almost a century, and chief among its most obvious agendas has been building and maintaining US Empire's global unipolar hegemony and military strength at all cost.

Americans are just now starting to realize that the glorious US history taught in our whitewashed schoolbooks has brainwashed multiple generations into wrongly believing America's always been God's gift and saviour to humanity and the rest of the world. Tell that to all the darker skinned peoples around the globe who've been bombed, raped and murdered, starting on US soil with the Native Americans and kidnapped African slaves and their descendants.

The public is just now finally coming to terms with recognizing that the system's been rigged against them for a long time. With Hillary's criminal exposure, presidential elections are blatantly rigged, the two-tiered justice system is horrendously in-our-face rigged, the stock market's rigged, gold prices are rigged.

The dumbed down education system that extends even to higher learning is rigged, having turned generations of college grads into lifetime indentured servants now unemployed or working minimum wage . . . college grad wages increased only 1.6% in the last quarter century . . . The US meritocracy work ethic that preaches working hard all your life eventually pays off is rigged because the entire Ponzi schemed economy's been rigged ever since the 1913 Federal Reserve Act. Placing privatized central banksters in charge of the nation's money supply manufacturing paper fiat out of thin air while charging interests off invisible reserves that don't even exist has given the elite unlimited power to infiltrate and hijack our government through organizations like the Federal Reserve and CFR that have systematically degenerated our once vibrant democratic republic into a fascist totalitarian police state on the verge of utter collapse . . . the nation so many of us grew up loving has been thoroughly fleeced and destroyed by the treasonous Clinton-Bush-Obama international crime cabal that governs the world employing the same bloody, lawless thuggery as organized crime. Their ruthlessly violent, demonically motivated tactics are one and the same, only the ruling elite and their political and corporate puppets have historically enjoyed a deceptive, undeserved legitimacy not afforded the mafia.

. . . history explicitly exposes the Council on Foreign Relations' relentless real agenda of one world governance that from behind the scenes is already informally operating, and how its promotion of global warming, global scarcity, global overpopulation, global terrorism, global refugee crises, global war and global economic collapse, all have been covertly contrived, manipulated and engineered by the ruling elite . . . objective is to finalize a cashless, RFID microchipped society under the absolute tyranny and control of an entrenched one world government. As a war machine maker, the Council on Foreign Relations should remain an enemy to every citizen of the world . . . Full story: empireexposed.blogspot.com

America's 'Humanitarian War' against the World

August 14, 2016 — The world is at a dangerous crossroads . . . Under a global military agenda, the actions undertaken by the Western military alliance (US-NATO-Israel) in Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Pakistan, Palestine, Ukraine, Syria and Iraq are coordinated at the highest levels of the military hierarchy. We are not dealing with piecemeal military and intelligence operations. Major military and covert intelligence operations are being undertaken simultaneously in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, Central Asia and the Asia Pacific region.

The current situation is all the more critical inasmuch as a US-NATO war on Russia, China and Iran is part of the US presidential election debate. It is presented as a political and military option to Western public opinion. The US-NATO military agenda combines both major theater operations as well as covert actions geared towards destabilizing sovereign states. America's hegemonic project is to destabilize and destroy countries through acts of war, support of terrorist organizations, regime change and economic warfare.

US and NATO forces have been deployed in Eastern Europe including Poland and Ukraine. In turn, military maneuvers are being conducted at Russia's doorstep which could potentially lead to confrontation with the Russian Federation. The US and its allies are also threatening China under President Obama's "Pivot to Asia." The US-led airstrikes initiated in August 2014 directed against Iraq and Syria under the pretext of going after Islamic State are part of a scenario of military escalation extending from North Africa and the Eastern Mediterranean to Central and South Asia . . .

Comment: Meanwhile, the Judaeo-Roman Universal church awaits the outcome of this Hegelian dialectic which will result in the world imploring the pope to resolve the misery and take over as president of one world government. Rome will overplay her hand by transforming the US into a Protestant (sic) "image unto the beast" to force her pagan trinity upon mankind which will result in a revolt with the Jewish banksters and Black Nobility allying with re-communised Russia 'nuking' Vatican City State and the USA from the face of the earth, followed by Armageddon and the consummation of life.

Uber to use Autonomous Cars in next Few Weeks

August 18, 2016 — In a few weeks, Uber will start using self-driving cars to carry passengers in Pittsburgh, raising the stakes in the fast-track race to deploy autonomous vehicles . . . customers will be able to opt into the test program, which will use autonomous Ford Fusions summoned by the touch of a smartphone. Although other companies are testing self-driving cars on public roads, this is the first time the public will get access to them. The rides, which come with a human backup driver to handle situations that the autonomous cars haven't seen, will be free to those willing to take part . . . without drivers, the cost of hailing a ride will be cheaper than owning a car . . . Uber also announced a $300 million alliance with Volvo to supply vehicles and technology, and the acquisition of an autonomous big-rig startup in San Francisco as it pushes forward with self-driving vehicles. . .

Freedom for Saif al-Gaddafi in Libya

August 18, 2016 — All over Libya millions now hope for the return of the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya. Meanwhile the US/NATO have stepped up their attacks on the country as part of their phony war on the very terrorists they still back. Alexandra Valiente of Jamahiriya News, and Libya 360 calls it the most sophisticated psychological warfare campaign in history. The US has also continued its phoenix program style assassination campaign aimed at supporters of the green resistance and the Libyan National Army. The war in Libya continues but the fact that Saif is now free gives reason for hope that one day all of Libya may be liberated from the terrifying occupation by the Empire of Chaos. Meanwhile in Lebanon Hannibal Gaddafi who was kidnapped by Hezbollah is still being held for a crime he couldn't possibly have committed since he was only 2 years old at the time of the mysterious assassination of Musa Sadr in 1978. Sadr's real killers were the Ed Wilson Theodore Shackley "Secret Team." The world must demand Hannibal's release. He was finally supposed to be freed last week when the court invented new trumped up charges to hold him . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca

Bayer AG makes Bee Contraceptives

August 13, 2016 — A study just published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B (Biological Sciences), identifies a dramatic reduction in sperm count in bees exposed to two of Bayer AG's most widely used pesticides—thiamethoxam and clothianidin. They found that those two neonicotinoids, "significantly reduce the reproductive capacity of male honeybees (drones), Apis mellifera. Drones were obtained from colonies exposed to the neonicotinoid insecticides or controls, and subsequently maintained in laboratory cages until they reached sexual maturity . . . the data clearly showed reduced drone lifespan, as well as reduced sperm viability (percentage living versus dead) and living sperm quantity by 39%."

The study continues: "Our results demonstrate for the first time that neonicotinoid insecticides can negatively affect male insect reproductive capacity, and provide a possible mechanistic explanation for managed honeybee queen failure and wild insect pollinator decline . . . As the primary egg layer and an important source of colony cohesion, the queen is intimately connected to colony performance. Increased reports of queen failure have recently been reported in North America and Europe; however, no studies have so far investigated the role of neonicotinoids and male health to explain this phenomenon" . . .

Bayer AG spreading bee death via its neonicotinoids, and now in a marriage with Monsanto who is spreading toxic effects harming to human embryo cells and much else? It's beginning to look like someone is out to dramatically reduce life on our beautiful planet. Full story: journal-neo.org

Economic Collapse Confirmed!

July 22, 2016 — This is a tough topic, because people either don't want to believe it or are not capable because they lack the knowledge to comprehend what is being said. When you understand that our country can only operate based on debt/credit, not physical dollars, you finally see that the USA is a huge Ponzi scheme built on nothing more that our ability to borrow money. Our status as the world reserve currency has allowed us to borrow money that we do not have. The government says that there are 10 trillion dollars sitting in the US Banking system that we can go and easily withdrawal. How can that be true when there only exists 1.4 trillion of real money in circulation (dollars and coins) and more than one half of that is outside the US. This doesn't include the 10s of trillions more that we owe other countries that have purchased our debt. If our creditors were to all come and ask for their money at one time there would be less than $1 dollar for every $1000 dollars owed. The world economy collapses. All Great empires based on fiat currencies end in this way . . . Full story: youtube.com

Invisible, but the Camera saw It

A German photographer had an order for some portrait studies of a very beautiful girl. To capture her exquisite colouring, he used orthochromatic plates. But when they were developed and proofs made, the girl's face appeared to be covered with blemishes. The photographer complained to the manufacturer, who took and tested the plates. But the mysterious blotches were found to be the result of outside causes, and not due to any imperfection in the plates themselves.

The subject did not return to view the proofs until two months after her sitting. When she did appear, the photographer was horrified to see her skin scarred and roughened. A few questions cleared up the mystery. Two days after she sat for her portrait, the girl had come down with smallpox. The disfiguring marks were not apparent on her face at the time, but the sensitive orthochromatic plates had detected a change in the skin.

The experience led the photographer to make special studies photographing "invisible" things and in the end he became an expert at detecting forged documents and altered cheques.

You are about to discover some "invisible" (or should I say, some generally unnoticed) "marks" in the world's oldest document which will show this document in a new perspective. These "marks" are not immediately apparent to most people. You might say that, even though we read them with our eyes, yet they remain, as it were, "invisible" to us. It is only the discoveries of archaeology that have made it possible for us to "see" these "marks" in the biblical Book of Genesis. And these features embedded in the narrative are compelling evidence that Genesis is very, very ancient.

WHAT THE CRITICS CLAIM

There are compelling hints that the Hebrew leader Moses compiled the Book of Genesis some time before 1400BC. But critics continue to point to repetitions in Genesis as proof that many later writers, whom they call J and E and P and D, hashed it together—from oral legends.

Well, if the critic can go into such detail, could it be that he knows something we don't? After all, there are repetitions, just as he says. Here is one of them: "And TERAH lived seventy years, and BEGAT ABRAM, NAHOR, AND HARAN. Now these are the generations of Terah. TERAH BEGAT ABRAM, NAHOR, AND HARAN." (Genesis 11:26, 27).

Did you notice that "Terah begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran" is written twice? So do the critics have a point?

Actually, there is some truth on both sides. Those who insist there was one editor are correct. Those who say there were several writers are likewise correct. However, there is some vital information that neither side has taken into account.

A REPEATED EXPRESSION

As you read through the book of Genesis, you may notice a recurring phrase: "these are the generations of . . ."

Genesis 2:4—"These are the generations of the heavens and the earth." Genesis 5:1-2—"This is the book of the generations of Adam." Genesis 6:9—"These are the generations of Noah." Genesis 10:1—"These are the generations of the sons of Noah." Genesis 11:10—"These are the generations of Shem." Genesis 11:27—"These are the generations of Terah." Genesis 25:12—"These are the generations of Ishmael." Genesis 25:19—"These are the generations of Isaac." Genesis 36:1—"These are the generations of Esau." Genesis 36:9—"These are the generations of Esau." Genesis 37:2—"These are the generations of Jacob."

Buried in the text of Genesis, this repeated expression contains a stunning clue, apparently unnoticed, of Genesis' great age. You see, what we are staring at here is a most ancient writing technique.

GENESIS CLAIMS TO HAVE BEEN FIRST WRITTEN, NOT ORALLY TRANSMITTED

Before going further, however, we must dispel the idea that the contents of Genesis were merely handed down orally. In Genesis 5:1 we read: "This is the book of the origins of Adam." Here the word sepher (translated "book") means "written account" or "finished writing".

The Septuagint Version renders Genesis 2:4: "This is the book of the origins of the heavens and the earth."

The "books" of that time were tablets. "Book" simply means "record." The earliest records of Genesis, therefore, claim to have been written down—and not, as is often imagined, passed down by word of mouth. This is not to say that word-perfect oral transmission was impossible. Beyond doubt, brilliant intellects were able to accurately memorise information of such importance. But Genesis itself testifies that these records were transmitted in "book" form (Genesis 5:1). It is important to understand also that the very earliest records in our history were incised into baked clay or stone tablets, not to be altered.

SOMETHING VERY ODD

However, back to this recurring phrase "These are the generations of . . ." There is something very odd about this that has puzzled scholars. Why? Because in every case, the main history of the person named is narrated before this phrase occurs—NOT after it. For example:

* ADAM: Adam's story is given in chapters 2 to 4.

— Then comes "This is the book of the generations of Adam" (Genesis 5:1).

— Then after the phrase "This is the book of the generations of Adam," we learn nothing more about Adam, except his age at death.

So when we read "this is the book of the history of Adam" it is the concluding sentence of the record already supplied concerning Adam. It is placed AFTER the history of Adam.

Here's another example:

* JACOB: Jacob's story appears in Genesis 25:25 to 37:1.

— Then comes "These are the generations of Jacob" (Genesis 37:2).

— But after "These are the generations of Jacob," we read mainly about Joseph, not about Jacob.

What follows does not talk about Jacob at all!

The expression "These are the generations of Jacob" in Genesis 37:2 obviously has nothing to do with what follows: "Joseph being seventeen years old was feeding the flock with his brothers" (verse 2).

In each case where the person's name is given, the verses that follow DO NOT give the history of that person at all! And this appears not to make sense.

THE MYSTERY

So what does this phrase "These are the generations of," mean? If it is NOT an introduction, or a preface to the history of the person named, then whatever is it?

That is the mystery!

FIRST USE IS OUR GUIDE TO ITS LATER USE

It is often a rule in ancient Scripture that the first use of a word or phrase fixes its future meaning. So, when we take the phrase, "these are the generations of" where it is first used, this becomes our guide to understanding the same expression "these are the generations of" when we see it repeated through the Book of Genesis.

Here is its first use: "These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created" (Genesis 2:4).

Again, you will notice that it is not placed before, but AFTER the history of Creation already given in Genesis chapter 1. So this phrase is the concluding sentence of the record already written. This means it is the end-title for what has gone before.

Other Books of Moses show this same feature:

• The Book of Leviticus has a simple opening, but the Book's conclusion is, "These are the commandments which the Lord commanded Moses for the children of Israel in Mount Sinai."

• In the Book of Numbers the last sentence reads: "These are the commandments and judgments which the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses unto the children of Israel in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho".

Now to the Book of Genesis. It keeps repeating the phrase "These are the generations".

What does this word "generations" mean? The Hebrew word for "generations" is toledoth. This means "history," especially family history. And also the origin of anything, the story of their origin. For example, in Genesis 2:4, "these are the generations of the heavens and the earth" means this is the story of their origin (Gesenius' Hebrew Lexicon).

So, put simply, the use of toledoth (generations) means "this is the history", "these are the historical origins of . . ." "these are beginnings of . . ." — signifying family history IN ITS ORIGINS.

It turns out that such end-titles were common practice in ancient times. We might cite, as an example, the Code of Hammurabi, an Eastern king who was contemporary with Terah and Abraham. Here the conclusion is more lengthy and formal than the introduction. It is at the end of his great inscription that he speaks of having written it. He says, "The righteous laws which Hammurabi the wise king established . . . my weighty words have been written upon my monument."

TITLE PLACED AT THE END

In those very ancient times the prevailing literary method of writing was to provide little or nothing of a preface, but frequently a very formal conclusion. So a title phrase, known as 'colophon', tended to be placed at the end of each tablet, or series of tablets.

Today, we place the title at the beginning of a book, but in very ancient times they placed it at the end. The title was the concluding sentence—and pointed back to the report just given. So when we read "these are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created" (Genesis 2:4), it is the concluding sentence of the record already written. It is placed AFTER the history of Creation. It ENDS the section of history about Creation. Immediately after that COMMENCES another section.

Likewise, "These are the generations of Adam" ENDS the section of history about Adam. And immediately after that COMMENCES another section about something else. "These are the generations of Jacob" ENDS the section of history about Jacob. And immediately after that, "Joseph being seventeen years old," etc., COMMENCES another section.

REPETITIONS ARE LINKS

And that brings us to another very ancient writing technique that shows Genesis to have been written originally on clay tablets. Immediately following the phrase "These are the generations of," there comes a repetition. And repetitions were used to join the tablets.

Notice this example:

(a) Firstly, in Genesis 10:22-25 the children of Shem are listed: "The children of Shem; Elam, and Asshur, and Arphaxad, and Lud, and Aram. And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash. And Arphaxad begat Salah; and Salah begat Eber. And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg".

(b) Then in Genesis 11:10 appears this phrase: "These are the generations of Shem".

(c) Then in Genesis 11:10-16 the children of Shem are listed again: "Shem begat Arphaxad two years after the flood: And Arphaxad lived five and thirty years, and begat Salah: And Salah lived thirty years, and begat Eber: And Eber begat Peleg".

In the above sequence, (a) The descendants of Shem who were born during his lifetime are named. (b) Then comes the end-title: "These are the generations of Shem." This ends Shem's tablet. (c) Then the next tablet begins. And it repeats the end part of the previous tablet (Shem's tablet) to show that it is the tablet to be read next after Shem's tablet.

Repetitions, you see, were used to link tablets together.

When the lengthy nature of the writing required more than one tablet (just as today with the pages of letters or books), proper sequence was often achieved by the use of titles and catch-lines. At the start of the next tablet were written the last few lines of the previous tablet.

This very ancient writing technique is precisely what we find in the Book of Genesis. Sometimes we find these strange duplications, when we see a reference to "generations" in the Book of Genesis.

Here is another one:

"And TERAH lived seventy years, and BEGAT ABRAM, NAHOR, AND HARAN. Now these are the generations of Terah. TERAH BEGAT ABRAM, NAHOR, AND HARAN" (Genesis 11:26-27).

So the end of one tablet reads as: "And TERAH lived seventy years, and BEGAT ABRAM, NAHOR, AND HARAN. Now these are the generations of Terah".

And the start of the next tablet says: "TERAH BEGAT ABRAM, NAHOR, AND HARAN."

This links two tablets, one to follow the other.

The repetition of the names "Abram, Nahor and Haran," before and after the "generations" phrase, indicates that they are "catch-lines" and conform to the usual ancient practice. On the first tablet, after the last line, came the first words of the next tablet.

If the critic knew his subject better, he would realise that this charge of "repetition" could be brought against almost every piece of ancient writing. It is characteristic of the style of the time.

Hence Professor Arno Poebel, in commenting on some ancient Sumerian tablets found at Nippur, writes: ". . . the readers of the Bible, moreover, will recognise the quaint principle of partial repetition or paraphrase" (Poebel, Historical Texts. University of Pennsylvania).

We find that, except for the last part of Genesis (the report concerning Joseph in Egypt), every tablet or series of tablets begins with a repetition of facts contained in the previous tablet. This is precisely what anyone acquainted with the ancient methods of writing would expect. And it is further evidence of the faithfulness with which the records have been transmitted to us.

The literary methods evident in Genesis are those of the time of Moses and not of a later date when methods changed. (See experts of recognised international standing, such as Kenneth Kitchen, Professor of Archaeology and Oriental Studies; Dr D. Wiseman, Professor of Assyriology and a Semitist; Professor Alan Millard). By clutching at these repetitions in Genesis in his attempt to discredit it, the poor critic only shows up his own ignorance. Oh, one does feel so sorry for him!

Let's say it again. Repetitions were deliberate features, inserted to link two tablets.

EVIDENCE OF ITS GREAT ANTIQUITY

1. The phrase "These are the generations of . . ." is the end-piece of a document—and points back to the narrative already recorded. 2. It is in the style of the earliest written records. 3. It habitually indicates the writer or owner of the history.

But the most solid evidence that the Book of Genesis is the very OLDEST—yes, I say OLDEST—of all documents we have on this planet earth, such evidence would fill a book. nl935.htm
